A Stormy Night, Setting Off for Lily of the Valley Island!

September 29, League Calendar 213. Sunyshore City Harbor.

A storm swept in, delaying every ship bound for Lily of the Valley Island.

Many Trainers planning to attend the Lily of the Valley Conference were stuck in the waiting room, hoping the heavy rain would stop soon.

In a corner of the waiting room, a low-key young man wearing a baseball cap sat relaxed in his seat, his expression forming a stark contrast with the anxious Trainers around him.

Beside him sat a large travel backpack. A Piplup had its head buried inside, rummaging around for something.

Seeing this, Hu Yang put down his phone, pulled Piplup out, then found the candy it had accidentally dropped into the backpack and handed it over.

The moment it got the candy, Piplup cheered up. Sitting on top of the backpack, it stuffed the candy into its mouth and let out a spoiled cry at Hu Yang. "Piplup~"

Hu Yang smiled and rubbed Piplup's head, then picked it up and placed it on his lap.

Today was two days before the Lily of the Valley Conference officially began. It had been three months since he left Celestic Town.

Over the past three months, Hu Yang had been driving that old RV all around Sinnoh. He had seen all kinds of rural towns and wild Pokémon, and bought plenty of local specialties.

They were gifts for the Pokémon in the Ecological Park. He had promised them before.

His journey through Sinnoh was nearing its end. Once the Lily of the Valley Conference was over, Hu Yang planned to return to Hoenn for a period of rest and prepare in advance for the coming New Year.

The Adamant Orb and Lustrous Orb Professor Carolina had entrusted to him had already been delivered to Dialga and Palkia.
